Answer» Number of candidates who failed in Maths `= 43%` Number of candidates who failed in both Physics and Maths ` = 14%` `:. `Number of candidates who failed only in Maths ` = 43-14 = 29%` It means the number of candidates who passed only in Physics will also be equal to `29%`. Let `x` is the number of totals candidates. Then, `x**29/100 = 580=> x = 20**100 = 2000` So, total number of candidates are `2000`. |
